I don't know why. I just do. It's not like I have any super close friends here... and there are other countries that have felt friendlier (such as El Salvador) or are more stunningly beautiful (such as Chile). Just a weird fascination, I guess.
Lots of things are just comfortingly familiar, now. The convenience store on every corner. The crazy moped drivers (worse with all the snow and ice). The heated floors. The way everyone tries to dress fashionably in an utterly impractical way. The ubiquitous cell phones (I have got to get one or I will be like a blind guy at at deaf persons' convention). The smell of kimchi.
OK. Enough nostalgia. Am I over the jetlag? Not really, but feeling more rested. Time to try to be productive.
